Bidirectional syncing should work, though I've heard there may be some problems with multiple branches. I had a discussion with someone about the used mapping, and they hacked up something in bash, though I've never looked at it. I've lost interest in git<->bzr syncing (and bzr in general) some time ago, so I never looked at it further. What specific problem do you have?

It might be that Bazaar changed something in the last year. They change their repository format and commands quite frequently, so you might be able to get it to work with an older version.
